Extra font in PDF/A-2b conversion

Aspose.PDF Product Family
1
Dear Aspose Team,

Aspose.Pdf for Java 11.1.0 seems to have introduced a font problem not present in 11.0.0. Converting the attached PDF file (test0018) to PDF/A-2b using

com.aspose.pdf.Document.convert(PdfFormat.PDF_A_2B, ConvertErrorAction.Delete)

seems to introduce a font not present in the original file. The extra font is

TimesNewRoman (Embedded)
Type: TrueType (CID)
Encoding: Identity-H

and it seems to cause problems in e.g. Adobe Reader. The resulting PDF/A-2b document contains at least clear text overlapping and strange spacing at the end of several lines.

Could you please check the behavior of the new Aspose.Pdf release.

For further investigation, I have logged an issue in our issue tracking system as PDFNEWJAVA-35520 and also linked your request to it. We will keep you updated via this thread regarding the issue status.

We are sorry for the inconvenience caused.
